Easter is nearly here, and spring is arriving like a welcome ray of sunshine. What better time to have a look at arguably the most famous sex toy of all time: The Rabbit Vibrator.
Bunny History: Where did the Rabbit come from?
The Rabbit Vibrator bounced to life in 1983 from Vibratex. Because the toy was manufactured in Japan, the vibes were made in bright colors and shaped to look character-like to bypass obscenity laws. This created the bunny rabbit style we have all come to know. The Rabbit Pearl debuted to the public a year later.
The Rabbit Pearl became a sex toy superstar when it was featured in HBO’s Sex in the City. In “The Turtle and the Hare” (season 1, episode 9), Miranda extols the virtues of the Rabbit Pearl and lends hers to Charlotte. Charlotte spends the rest of the episode in her apartment experimenting with her new-found friend.
After the Rabbit Pearl’s moment in the spotlight, companies rushed to bring out their own versions of this hot new thing. Every woman wanted a rabbit in her bedside drawer. The Rabbit was the first time it was widely acknowledged that women enjoy dual stimulation, often needing clitoral stimulation to reach orgasm.
With the growth in sex toy reviewing, manufacturers started to realise there were anatomical issues with rabbit vibrators. In order to keep up with changes in sex toy demands, the Rabbit has undergone somewhat of a makeover in recent years. Not everyone is the same size or shape, and one style rarely fits all. To wit, some manufacturers have begun to incorporate flexible necks into their rabbit designs. The eponymous split ears are often replaced by a single arm.
There is a wealth of different spins on the original rabbit design. Let’s have a look at some of the modern versions.
Satisfyer Pro G-Spot Rabbit
This new launch from Satisfyer offers the newest craze of touch-free clitoral suction stimulation, but with the traditional rabbit shape. Instead of vibrating ears, the Satisfyer Pro G-Spot Rabbit has a nozzle delivering air pulse stimulation for that oral sex sensation.
This is a clever way to incorporate the newest sex toy trend into an old favorite.
Flicker Silicone Tongue Rabbit
The Flicker swaps vibrating ears for silicone tongues on a tiny motorised wheel. They turn in either direction to stimulate your clit whilst the main shaft delivers good vibrations internally.
This is an unusual take on the rabbit and the sensation is completely different to vibration and a great novelty toy for use on cam. Don’t forget to use water-based lube with silicone toys though.
LELO Ina Wave
The LELO Ina Wave takes the “come hither” motion of stimulating the G-spot and adds it to the rabbit vibrator. The internal arm waves back and forth in a beckoning motion to really hit your hot spot. Visually, the LELO Ina Wave is hypnotic.
The vibrations are strong and consistent, meaning the LELO Ina Wave is a perineal favorite.
The Rabbit Company Thrusting Rabbit
This Rabbit resembles the Original Rabbit design much more than other bunnies, even sporting the classic split ears clitoral stimulant. The trick to this model is the shaft thrusts up into you. That’s right — this rabbit kicks back! Again, visually this vibrator would be great for cam shows.
Lay back and let the Thrusting Rabbit do the heavy lifting.
Fun Factory Bi Stronic Fusion Pulsator
Technically, the Bi Stronic Fusion isn’t a vibrator. It’s a pulsator. The rabbit-shaped toy offers a wealth of settings and utilises extremely powerful pulsation to create a thrusting motion. The ears are replaced with a fin-like appendage for clitoral stimulation.
This is an unusual sensation, completely different to vibration and very strong.
As you can see, there are so many variations to the original Rabbit vibrator. It’s still possible to collect a veritable warren of devices for your personal use or for showtime play. Easter is a perfect time to look for an upgrade to the bunny in your toy box.
